    LYRICS:
    The Great Unknown Gavin Dunne 2017
    Open eyes
    The longest sleep
    The furthest leap
    A new sunrise
    Look up, look up to see
    Pioneers
    It’s been so long
    Since we’ve been gone
    But we are here
    Step out, step out and breathe
    Rushing over rolling rings
    On solar winds we ride
    Into the great unknown
    The stars light up the stones
    We’re carried ever onward
    Upon a hope of home
    Oh oh oh oh
    Into the great unknown
    Into the faraway
    Ride on the hope of home
    The sky is ever brighter
    Into the great unknown
    Into the faraway
    Finding home
    Better days
    The paths we’ve laid
    The friends we’ve made
    Along the way
    Reach out, reach out to feel
    Out into the vast we’re headed
    Paths untread to find
    Into the great unknown
    The stars light up the stones
    We’re carried ever onward
    Upon a hope of home
    Oh oh oh oh
    Into the great unknown
    Into the faraway
    Ride on the hope of home
    The sky is ever brighter
    Into the great unknown
    Into the faraway
    Finding home
    Lives and loves we left behind
    Faded in the crest of time
    Shooting stars they dot the Milky Way
    Painful ends and broken hearts
    Left behind for a new start
    Shut the doors, ignite and cast away....
    Into the great unknown
    The stars light up the stones
    We’re carried ever onward
    Upon a hope of home
    Into the great unknown
    The stars light up the stones
    We carry ever onward
    Upon a hope of home
    Oh oh oh oh
    Step outside and breathe the air
    Look up to the new sunrise
    We are home...
    Into the great unknown
    Into the faraway
    Ride on the hope of home
    The sky is ever brighter
    Into the great unknown
    Into the faraway
    Finding home

    • @MatthewBowman
      @MatthewBowman 7 лет назад +4

      Depression leeches joy out of your life and can turn things you love into distant memories. That's not you or the thing you love. Depression blocks your true perception.
      Go do something different for a while. I recommend a walk in the woods while listening to Gavin's music, but that's just off the top of my head. Depression is an illness like any other, but like mist chronic illnesses, coping mechanisms tend to be different from person to person and even change based on the day. Sometimes I need the woods. Sometimes I need to create art. Sometimes I need a video game, or a hug, or ice cream, or to see a small child look at something I made and go "Wow!"
      Something that may help, at least to know you're not alone, is an article I wrote a while back explaining what depression is like. thecatholicgeeks.com/2015/06/18/a-look-inside-depression/

    • @MatthewBowman
      @MatthewBowman 7 лет назад +2

      NileonMatter Depression will always make it seem like you'll never get better. Like I said, it's an illness. When you have a cold, you probably feel like it'll never end. And that's a small illness. Depression is chronic. It's always lurking like something alive. It's not, but sometimes it's helpful to visualize it as something you can fight.
      I've gotten to the point that I can recognize, even deep in depression, that what I'm feeling is probably false. When I come back out, which might be in a few hours or two months, it'll seem obvious that it was all an illusion. But when it's there, it's more real that what I can touch.

      In short though much of what they worked on was scrapped because they needed to make a “more monetizable game”
      And yea, they had impossible deadlines to work with, terrible marketing assistance, and many more problems. When players backlashed at the multiplayer EA pulled the plug entirely.

    At this point I'm genuinely confused why game publishers haven't picked up Gav to do their trailers for them. He'd probably charge pennies compared to their 'big budget marketing team', and he can make even the shittiest games look incredible.
    I'm pretty sure if he did a song for bad rats it'd be on the top of steam best-sellers by the end of the day.

  • @onyxtay7246

    Let's take a moment to see the minutia of this song. The chorus throughout the whole thing goes.
    "Into the great unknown
    The stars light up the stones
    We’re carried ever onward
    Upon a hope of home
    Oh oh oh oh "
    As the chorus is sung one last time it changes, a small change, but a powerful one.
    "Into the great unknown
    The stars light up the stones
    We carry ever onward
    Upon a hope of home
    Oh oh oh oh "
    *We carry ever onward". No longer is it "we're carried", but "we carry". It changes from someone who simply goes along, to someone who moves, and changes things. We're could mean we are, or we were. It's about how Ryder went from following his/her father, being carried onward by the pathfinder, to being that pathfinder. Ryder is now carrying humanity into the great unknown.
    Gav's songs always reference things in a good way. He puts in musical references to previous songs in a series, and he puts in references to the game lore. It's rarely obvious, but it really shows these aren't just pumped out, they're things that take commitment, and care about something to make.

    Having not yet played Andromeda (no XB1 / PS4 or a PC capable of running it yet), I can't comment on how this relates to the actual game. I'm not even looking at the video itself in case of (unintentional) spoilers.
    What I *will* say, however, is how amazing this song feels to me: I adore the callback to Crucible, the instantly catchy riffs and chorus, the synthy-ness (that is a word) and subtle ME1 theme melody - it's like a love letter to the entire Mass Effect series and we lucky few who happen to be fans (of ME and MoS).
    Gav, you are without question a musical genius and it is criminal that you're not more well-known and receiving the attention you clearly deserve. I'm pretty much guaranteed to be a fan for the rest of my life. Major Kudos to you, sir, and may you keep on rockin'!

      The club music for Andromeda was pretty unique it wasn't from other EA titles, the ones I am mainly talking about is Staggered Injection and Callista the music played in the upper level of Afterlife in ME 2 and I believe the lower level soundtrack was from Need for Speed games. All of the ones for Andromeda the developers asked some artist to do tracks for the nightclubs my favorite personally is Proton Bells by Koba.

    Mass Effect Universe - R. I. P.

    • @venomrulesall
      @venomrulesall 3 года назад +2

      Don't give up hope. Maybe. Just maybe. It can come back. Mass Effect is what really broke open the doors for games where every choice you make matters. It would be stupid to let it fade away completely.

    • @alosterionwrynn
      @alosterionwrynn 3 года назад +1

      Mass effect is never R.I.P, until we have Mass Effect 2:) Mass effect is one of the best trilogy ever made, all of three games are perfect, but the end of Mass effect 3 is bad, but i don’t think this a big problem, and we cannot play this three mighty games again:)

    There is a title/job that is not used much these days and that is Bard. For those that are not sure or don't know bards where the song writers and story tellers in Britain mainly during the middle ages they told tales wrote verse and composed music. This I think that is a perfect description of what Gavin does.

    I didn't play the original Mass Effect trilogy until pretty late, about 2014. By then all of Gav's phenomenal Mass Effect series songs were out and I enjoyed the hell out of them. With Mass Effect 3 being my favorite game of all time, songs like Take It Back and Crucible had become as much a part of my Mass Effect experience as the game itself. And since I've finished, I feel like I'd left behind some great memories of the crew and adventures of those games.
    When that Crucible sting hit at 2:51, I was right back there on the Citadel with all those friends again, tearing up from the happy memories.
    From the bottom of my heart, thanks Gav. Never stop being amazing.

      From what I heard it was that old AAA game killer, rushed deadlines. Publishers seem to do this a lot, and it rarely turns out well. Really rarely. I don't know why they always choose to waste whatever investment they had already put into the game in favor of getting it out slightly faster. I know it must cost a lot to keep an AAA studio running for even a week, but...you'd think that's why they have a publisher at all...I guess I just don't understand business.
